Lyrics

The demise of the unfortunate cricket. We thought he was a cockroach instead.
The demise of the unfortunate tabby. We thought she was a coyote instead
Ah . . . Ah . . .
The demise of the unfortunate garter. We thought he was a rattler instead.
The demise of the unfortunate German. We thought he was Jewish instead.
Ah . . . Ah . . .
The demise of the unfortunate Catholic. We thought he was Protestant instead.
The demise of the unfortunate Arab. We thought he was the other side instead.
Ah . . . Ah . . .
It's not always as it seems. We're all just human beings.
Yet it's not always quite that easy. It's not always as it seems.
The demise of the unfortunate bridegroom. We thought he was the best man instead.
The demise of the unfortunate lover. We thought he was a loser instead.
